15 : The Belt

Ansh audibly gasped and stood up from his spot. All his life, he has recieved threats about getting the belt but has never faced it's wrath. And he didn't know he would be facing it this early in his life. (Ansh has come to terms that he will be getting beaten by Kalyan all his life 😶‍🌫️).

He got up from his place and started moving backwards. Kalyan saw this and was confused. Then he saw ansh not taking his eyes off him, when he followed where ansh was looking at, he could find the belt which was in his hands. A belt which he brought to put it in his cupboard because he forgot it in the drawing room earlier.

As soon as he realized it, he couldn't control his smile. He tried his hardest to maintain a stoic expression. He didn't bring the belt to hit him but since ansh was getting scared already, he wanted to take advantage of that. After composing himself from laughing, he gestured towards ansh to come closer.

Ansh shakes his head in fear and he was stuffed inti a corner almost about to go into the wall.

"Me aou?" Kalyan says trying his hardest to not laugh.

"Papa... me bohot dar gaya tha sachi! Itni si baat ke liye aap belt se maroge?? Apki choti si baby par daya nahi he kya apko..." ansh says scaredly.

"Three two on-" kalyan starts counting and ansh immediately runs to him and stands at a safe distance. There have been numerous occurances where the end of the countdown resulted in very bad consequences.. he didn't want to take the risk now especially with the nasty belt around.

"Kyu bhaag gaye?" Kalyan asks while looking at ansh. Ansh doesn't reply and just looks down at the floor. Kalyan grows impatient with the silence.

"Haa aise puche tho kyu batoge, idhar aa!" Kalyan says while raising the belt at ansh. Ansh flinches and freezes in spot while yelling.

"Bataungaaaaaa!!! Baataungaaa!" Ansh yells and kalyan covers his ears at the tone of his voice.

"Chup! Halke awaaz me batau!"

"Me bas dar gaya tha! Aap hame chodke chale gaye... aur mission pe ho tho call bhi nahi uthathe! Itne din baad gaye aur mujhe bas bohot ajeeb sa laga papa.... Aap please aur missions pe mat jau..." ansh says while tears roll in his eyes. He then immediately falls into kalyan's arms. Kalyan who knows how ansh has seperation anxiety doesn't say anything and pats his back.

"Anshu bacha... ab me agaya na! Rona band karo! Ishu sahi kehta he! Aanso ki tanki ho tum! Pata nahi kaisa tap khul jate hai roz roz!" Kalyan says while patting ansh's back lovingly.

"Apko acha lagta he me agar roya tho?" Ansh asks with his face still buried in kalyan's chest.

"Ekdum ghatiya lagta hai!"

"Tho please wo belt fek dijiye 🥺" ansh says with puppy eyes and finally kalyan laughs out loud.

"I know you were sad ansh! And you are free to express your feelings. Me ya tumhari mumma apko apki feelings suppress karne ke liye nahi bolthe hai! But the way you displayed them is absolutely wrong! Khana na khane ki zid karna! Medicines na lene ki blackmail karna! And mene last time itna maara tha apko, same cheez ke liye and you promised me that you will never skip your meds. Phir bhi you decided to be foolish and act the same way again." Kalyan after composing himself spoke out in a stern tone. Ansh just nods to everything.

"Iss baar tho me belt nahi use karunga! But if you repeat it again, i won't even have a second thought before thrashing you with it! And you will remember it for the rest of your life!" Kalyan says with a slightly raised voice.
